Treating games like disposable toys is exactly why they're packed full of microtransactions and anti-consumer nonsense.

Treating games like they're NOT art is what's dragged down the industry, and if you're too dense to see that, you're part of the problem.

This is the Gish Gallop of Gamergate b-------. It’s historical take is dead wrong; he ignores the very early Infocom text adventures with their super rich complexity, and is charged with ressentiment while failing to justify its positions, which meander. A poorly written screed.

>games aren't art and thinking so dragged down the hobby
"If film critics could destroy a movie, Michael Bay and Adam Sandler would be working at Starbucks. If film critics could make a movie a hit, the Dardenne brothers would be courted by every studio in town."
"Critics may look down on a popular work on principle, denouncing it as Lowest Common Denominator garbage that’s all flash and no substance. Conversely, the public may see a work beloved by the critics as boring, angsty and pretentious drivel engineered solely to win awards from equally boring, angsty and pretentious Academy members."

If you think game journos hipsters asking vidya to be deep and thought-provoking somehow affects video game's ability to be emotionally investing and entertaining, you need to stop following them on twitter.
